Illustration of stars which are larger and smaller than the sun. The star in the background is Mu Cephei, a red supergiant star, 1,200 times the size of the sun. On the right of the illustration, the largest stars are depicted, from bottom to top : -Betelgeuse (a red supergiant star, 400 times the size of the sun) -Canopus (a yellow supergiant star, 150 times the size of the sun) -Aldebaran (an orange-red giant star; 45 larger than the sun) -Arcturus (an orange-red giant star, 25 times the size of the sun) The sun is depicted by the small white dot at the upper left of Arcturus. On the left of the illustration are the smaller stars (in this part of the illustration, the sun is depicted by the star in the background): -Barnards star (a red dwarf star, 0.2 times the size of the sun) -Gliese 229B (a brown dwarf star, 0.1 times the size of the sun) -Sirius (a white dwarf star, 0.007 times the size of the sun)

In this illustration, an asteroid (bottom left) breaks apart under the powerful gravity of LSPM J0207+3331, the oldest, coldest white dwarf known to be surrounded by a ring of dusty debris. Scientists think the systems infrared signal is best explained by two distinct rings composed of dust supplied by crumbling asteroids.

Scientists using NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope were able to create the first-ever map of the surface of a planet beyond our solar system. The planet, a hot and cloudy gas giant is called HD 189733b.

LP disk in space

On April 25, 2008, NASA's Swift satellite picked up a record-setting flare from a star known as EV Lacertae. This flare was thousands of times more powerful than the greatest observed solar flare. But because EV Lacertae is much farther from Earth than the sun, the flare did not appear as bright as a solar flare. Still, it was the brightest flare ever seen from a star other than the sun. What makes the flare particularly interesting is the star. EV Lacertae is much smaller and dimmer than our s

A very old spiral galaxy

Artists impression showing a brown dwarf surrounded by a swirling disc of planet-building dust. NASAs Spitzer Space Telescope spotted such a disc around a surprisingly low-mass brown dwarf, or failed star. The brown dwarf, called OTS 44, is only 15 times the size of Jupiter, making it the smallest brown dwarf known to host a planet-forming, or protoplanetary disc. Astronomers believe that this unusual system will eventually spawn planets. If so, they speculate that OTS 44s disc has enough mass to make one small gas giant and a few Earth-sized rocky planets. OTS 44 is about 2 million years old.

Artists concept of what the night sky might look like from a hypothetical alien planet in a star system with an asteroid belt 25 times as massive as the one in our own solar system. In our solar system, anybody observing the skies on a moonless night far from city lights can see the sunlight that is scattered by dust in our asteroid belt. Called zodiacal light and sometimes the false dawn, this light appears as a dim band stretching up from the horizon when the Sun is about to rise or set. The light is faint enough that the disk of our Milky Way galaxy remains the most prominent feature in the sky. The Milky Way disk is shown perpendicular to the zodiacal light

A total eclipse of the Sun as seen from being in Earth's orbit.

This illustration shows the position of NASA's Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 probes, outside of the heliosphere, a protective bubble created by the Sun that extends well past the orbit of Pluto. Voyager 1 crossed the heliopause, or the edge of the heliosphere, in August 2012. Heading in a different direction, Voyager 2 crossed another part of the heliopause in November 2018.
